Jackson: Teton Village

Jackson lies along Flat Creek in Wyoming’s Jackson Hole valley, where the Teton Range forms a sharp western wall above broad sagebrush flats. The town borders the National Elk Refuge, a winter range for one of North America’s largest elk herds, while the Snake River crosses the valley west of town. Four arches made from naturally shed elk antlers stand on Town Square, reflecting the area’s close ties to wildlife and ranching. The Jackson Hole Rodeo continues that ranching tradition during the summer season. Grand Teton National Park lies north of Jackson, and the Bridger-Teton National Forest surrounds much of the valley.

Wyoming stretches from the Montana border to its frontiers with Colorado and Utah, encompassing the high Rockies, broad basins, and Great Plains. The Continental Divide crosses the state, while the Wind River and Bighorn River drain contrasting sides of its interior. In the northwest, Yellowstone National Park—established in 1872 as the world’s first national park—and Grand Teton National Park place geothermal country and sharp mountain relief at the centre of Wyoming’s identity. Ranching remains integral to its open-country culture, alongside communities shaped by railroads, energy, and outdoor travel.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
